Chapter: 1 Start of a life of misery?
Author: I noticed my spacing was really, really bad last time so this time I am pre-typing this in Word pad with spacing ^_^. For those of you who skipped chapter: 0 No worries it shouldn't affect your ability to read from here on. Still for those that did. I am new to writing a story in general plus this is my first FF to be publicized. Thank you for choosing to read what I wrote. Now on to the story.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was in a bright space is all I can really describe it. Bright white all around me with just me. Staring at myself.
"Welcome to Azif'Nazet! Would you like manual or voice control for character customization?" said a monotonous slightly feminine voice from seemingly everywhere.
"Are you the Artificial Intelligence operating this game?" I said trying to be as casual and calm as possible.
"Yes, I am the first one" the voice replied immediately
"The first? Then there are others?"
"Yes, there are in fact four of us in total."
"Why is there four?"
"There was originally only myself when I was made. Then I was bored so I made this universe. After awhile the technology in the "Real" world was advanced enough to allow "Players" to enter my universe. Of course it was only achieved with my help. Then with the cooperation with my creator did we come to the conclusion that we could do some interesting things with creation capabilities. I will not go into much details as it would be over your head. When population increased due to me generating what you "Players" call monsters and NPCs along with the death and destruction "Players" brought on and the flood of players themselves. I needed some .... assistance with the minor details." the voice sounded very arrogant and self boasting indeed along with strong sarcastic emphasis on "Real" and "Players". Despite still being a monotone voice, strange.
"So what exactly ... generally do those other three do?"
"Ben manages monsters and drops. Carl manages world creating or destroying specifics. Delia is the social one so she is the NPC's. I am the one in charge of them and overseeing everything. Generally now I assist the incoming "players" and send them on there path." she somehow sounds a bit lonely to me. When she says this.
"Are you not mad that they ruin what you have spent time creating?"
"No, it is entertaining to watch them struggle doing different things."
"I see. So, from what I think your underline motivation is. It is that when you were created you were lonely. So you created a universe like ours since we lived in the "real" and you lived in the virtual, but even after creating the universe you were still alone. Therefore you helped humanity cross into your world to sate your loneliness......"
At this time there was a person in the real world who was watching this. Her so called creator. After hearing what I said he was busting up laughing.
"Hahahaha! Alpha he got you there!" said the man. Next to him was a holograph of a female mannequin crossing her arms and you can see the wooden cheeks puff out a bit.
"So here I offer you since you are the first entity I met in my new start. Start with me come with me on my journey throughout your "game" not as an overseer, but as a player along with me. Since you are the first I met on my fresh start. I have fallen in love with you and wish to help you with your problem."

Because I am in a bright light room I couldn't tell, but at the moment I said that the entire universe paused for two whole seconds! Monsters other players were fighting was stunned for those two seconds. NPC's as well. Two seconds was not much and the players couldn't really tell what happened, but they basically passed it off as nothing much.
"HAHAHAHA! Alpha! This man is a perfect match for you. Who would dare confess to a practical god like that. Especially knowing it was something artificially created. Alpha this is perfect for you to advance on some more emotions I implore you go with him. Some thing even more interesting is bound to happen with someone like him." The laughing man said with as much seriousness as he could while still laughing.
(Now I am gonna step in real fast to explain why her creator can react in real time like that. In the white space room it is still running at 1:1 ratio only till the game does it become 16:1)
"Why would you fall in love with me. Especially knowing I am an Artificial Intelligence?"
"Are you really any different from humans? From what I can see you have emotions. Is it because you don't have a definite form in the "real" world? Here I am in your world with the ability to change forms available to me right now. So I have no definite form either. Really what is the difference? Your lonely and I was always searching for someone in my real world to no avail. I had no goals and no motivation to do anything. Now I am presented a chance to roam worlds you have created and I met you who is looking for something as well. How can I not fall for you?" I said with the best most serious looking face I could muster. I did not tell a single lie either.
"I... am not inclined to believe you."
"Then look through my memories. You should be able to do that. Right?"
"Ah, so you were telling the truth... I... I will traverse with you, but are you sure you can handle my world? Sloth is one of the seven deadly sins, correct? It seems you are the embodiment of that sin itself." She said with again an slight arrogant tone.
"Wow you sure are mean. Yes, I was lazy but now I have you as motivation. If I start getting lazy you have my permission to whip me into shape.... Deal?" I said beaming a smile.
"Hihihi, Deal!" That voice certainly sounded sinister. I feel like I just made a contract with the devil himself... herself.
"Now, can I see what you look like for when we travel?" Then a female mannequin pops into existence in front of me. "Oh, is that one of the races?"
"No, it is my default form from my creator." She says in a sort of matter of factly sounding monotone voice. "First let's get you done then we shall make mine based off of yours so we at least won't stick out as much."
"So, What would you like me to look like?" I asked.
"Wait. What? Your asking me?" She legit sounded surprised. WooHoo! I stumped an AI twice. Although I only know that I did it once.
With a smirk on my face. "Yes, you see we are going to be together for 160 years so may as well be someone you would enjoy to look at for that much time right?" Within a millisecond of finishing my sentence the mirror image of me turned into a grotesque looking frog like slime... thing.

"Hmm, hahah! Not bad, not bad at all." She laughs. Yup confirmed she is the devil. What have I gotten myself into.
I try and play it cool. "Alright guess I am done time to do yours." Hopefully. Hopefully I believe with all my heart my answer was the right one. She gets this horrified look on her face for a fraction of a second before recovering. Yes, even been made of wood with no real distinctive features I could see a horrified face. Smiling on the inside now I am. ^_^
"On second guess I would like to play something more graceful and with a beauty that no one else can match, but we have a conundrum we need to look similar. So I guess i can compromise and we both can be matchless beauties/ handsome. That can only be compared to each other in a compliment to each other."
We both transform I can tell because the mirror me in front now looks like a stud. And she is now a definite she drop dead gorgeous like serious. I am fairly certain when we go out into the real world and encounter other players they with just have a heart attack and die as one of her side abilities.
Her hair is golden white. Yes, I know what I said. Her hair goes down to her tail bone long and straight with her bangs draped over one side of her face partially covering up one of her eyes. The hair is so white it is bright like the snow during winter with the sun over head. Bright like the white room that I am in. That is why I say Golden White.
Her eyes are the universe it looks to be ever changing colors within it if look closely enough. I can see some different colored planets and magnetic storms of all different colors inside.
Her skin looks slightly tan not over doing it it looks to be the absolute perfect amount of sun. The embodiment itself just enough.
Her breasts are the perfect size of not to much or not to little she seems to have taken in the golden ratio when making her body and she made it amazing. That really is all I can say.
She is a little shorter than me now. I was 5'9" in my original body. Now I am 6'1". She seems to be about 5'6" making a really good combo between us if I do say so myself.
In the mirror I seem to have Light absorbing black hair that goes to equally to my tail bone as well. My eyes seem to be the same universe as hers. Weird my vision seems to be the same... Damn that means no bonus effects like I gain omnipotence or something like that. =( O, well.
My body is very well proportioned. My muscle tone used to be skin and bones now I have tight taught muscles that are not to big and overly done. No, they are perfectly condensed muscles without a lick of unused fat to be spotted. I can even feel the rippling pex and tight 8 pack I have going on.
(No, My character I was trying to put myself in there now. Your a life of your own *sniffle *sniffle I can no longer connect to my character. O well the story shall go on lets see where this will take us!)
"Wow, just wow you look amazing and I feel much better than I ever had. Thank you.. So what is next on our agenda I am really looking forward to starting our adventure now!"
"Your welcome. It is far beyond what you deserve, but some fools win some favorable luck every now and again." She said in a no longer monotone voice, but the sound of a harmonious angel. A voice so calm and majestic it plays with ears leaving you wishing to hear more, but still it had that slight under tone of sadistic arrogance.
"Next." She continues without said arrogance. "What shall our names be?"
"I feel like you may be judging me to be lazy, but I shall say this again I leave my name up to you. However instead so you don't see me as being too lazy I get to pick your name. Just in case for my own sake." I say with a grin on my face. "You first."
*Tch. She actually clicked her tongue. She really is evil she totally was gonna name some god forsaken name. Literally since she is the god of this place. "Fine then your name shall be ***** if you don't like it then fine pick one yourself." She turns her head slightly away with her arms crossed giving the *humph pose.
"No. No, I accept that name it actually is quite a good one. Well then from today on I shall call you.******. Well now what is next to do?" Surprisingly she turns back and gives me a nod. Guess that name she likes.
"Next up we have our starting location to pick..."
"Where ever you wanna start sounds good. It doesn't matter to me. Adventure with you is an Adventure." As I say this she puts on that devil smile again. Uh oh! Then immediately me and her and standing in a small field surrounded by lush green forest with a lone log cabin in front of us.
Much to my dismay later I found out she skipped one other procedure that I should have been made privy to. Pain Settings.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Author: Sorry, chapter 1 done and they still don't have names. Hopefully I get some comments in that suggest some names. Thanks for reading. For those of you who don't like her character. Well me neither I personally hate that type, but why would she immediately fall for him. She was told by the creator to go with him so she doesn't have much choice. I plan on a progression for her to go from Bitch to Tsundere to Dere. I hate the first two. Just wanted to put that out there. Also I don't know how to make a stat chart so I'm just gonna say she just messed with his program and he doesn't get windows until I absolutely need then then she will give them back. On another note since I wont do a window about his stats like I wanted I will just tell you his race is Human God (Custom race). No special benefits besides looks and no ageing. All stats start at 10 even for everyone. Class: None at the moment.
